[PATCH v3 0/6] kvm: x86: better handling of optional kvm_x86_ops

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series is really two changes:

- patch 1 remove a kvm_x86_ops callback.

- patch 2 to 5 clean up optional kvm_x86_ops so that they are marked
  in kvm-x86-ops.h and the non-optional ones WARN if used incorrectly.
  As an additional outcome of the review, a few more uses of
  static_call_cond are introduced.

- patch 6 allows to NULL a few kvm_x86_ops that return a value, by
  using __static_call_ret0.

v1->v2:
- use KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL and KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL_RET0
- mark load_eoi_exitmap and set_virtual_apic_mode as optional
- fix module compilation of KVM

v2->v3:
- new patch 1 to remove .has_accelerated_tpr
- do not expand KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL in KVM_X86_OP
- cosmetic changes to comments
